For IITs, there is no home state quota, and admission is solely based on the All India Rank (AIR) in the JEE Advanced exam. You cannot apply for IITs through the Delhi state quota, as they do not have such a category.
For NITs, however, the home state quota applies. You must have completed your schooling (typically up to 12th grade) in the same state as the NIT to be eligible. In your case, if you are a Delhi resident and have completed schooling there, you would be considered for the home state quota at NIT Delhi and other NITs in Delhi

The admission of the NIT Surat Computer Science Engineering course will depend, as always, on the JEE Main rank; it varies yearly according to the number of applicants and seats available. Generally, the candidates from the general category need to score within the top 10,000 to get a desired admission in the home state quota.
Prospective students from the rest of India may need to get a higher rank than that, quite often within 5,000. For reserved categories, the rank cutoff is quite relaxed. Getting a percentile of 97 or more in JEE Main increases the chances of admission significantly.
One should try to excel in each of the JEE Main s

With an OBC rank of 20,000 in JEE Mains, it is quite challenging to secure a seat in the Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE) branch at top NITs, as the competition is fierce, and the cutoffs tend to be high for popular branches like ECE. However, there are still possibilities to get into some NITs with this rank, especially in lower-ranked NITs or through state-level quotas.
- NIT Agartala
- NIT Patna
- NIT Rourkela
- NIT Srinagar
- NIT Jamshedpur
- NIT Durgapur
- NIT Raipur
- NIT Manipur
Other Option
Other branches in top NITs: If you are flexible with the branch, you might have better chances in other engineering branches that are less competitive

Yes, you could appear for the JEE entrance test and apply to NITs, provided you have completed the 12th standard through the Assam State Open Schooling and your qualification is recognised by the authorities. Normally, a candidate should have completed the 12th standard with Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics, and scored more than 75% (or be among the top 20 percentile in the board examination). It is advised to ascertain JBIC officials about the board's recognition status if you are to be considered an eligible candidate.

With a CRL rank of 159865 and an OBC rank of 53541, you are unlikely to get admission into a top NIT for a popular branch, but you might be able to secure a seat in a newer NIT for a less preferred branch using your OBC category rank; it's best to check the closing ranks of different NITs and branches on the JoSAA website to see your chances

Firstly, clear all your fundamentals about all the chapters in all 3 subjects. You should be knowing major concepts and their applications.
Practice Mock tests and sample papers- Candidates must practice more and more JEE Main sample papers and mock tests. These mock tests and sample papers will open the candidates to different types of questions daily and will help them analyze their performance.
Try to solve every question in under 2minutes so that during exam, you'll get more time to crosscheck your answers.
All the very best :).

A rank of 1788 in JEE Mains with a percentile of 74.15% makes admission to an NIT possible but difficult. The cutoff ranks vary across branches and categories for different NITs. The cutoff for popular branches such as Computer Science or Electronics will be high, while that for Civil or Mechanical will be easier to crack based on the category and availability of seats. You should be alert to any changes in the trend pattern as reported in the counseling process (JoSAA) for your category and branch preference.
